Parsing will be performed using the {\bf LCFlex} parser
\cite{Rose-Lavie-chap}, a recently developed robust parser for
unification-augmented context-free grammars.  {\sc LCFlex} is a left corner 
chart parser, that can support a variety of flexibilities: skipping over 
portions of the input, limited word and category insertions, and limited 
relaxation of unification constraints.  Additionally, {\sc LCFlex} supports
multi-stage parsing that allows the parser to apply different types and
levels of flexibilty at different stages.  The parser's flexibility 
parameters can be fine tuned for for optimizing performance in specific 
applications.  {\sc LCFlex} has currently not yet been tested within a large
scale translation application.  We plan on making necessary adaptations to
the parser based on our experiences from applying it in the {\sc Nespole!}
project.
